So instead of burning fossil fuels in our cars, they will be burning them at the electric company. And on hot summer days many electric companies are already running in the red! Causing rolling brown outs to conserve power. So, if everyone has an electric car, how many more power plants will be needed to supply the power? It will probably be a greater increase in electrical draw than we use all together now! More than doubling our usage. So how much will it cost to build all these extra power plants? And what will that do to the cost of electricity?

Exactly.
In this country, I can envisage coal being once again adopted as a major fuel resource. The reserves are still massive and clean ways of using it exist. And the technology now exists to mine what was inaccessible.
Renewable energy still has a long way to go and the depressing alternative of nuclear power is to be avoided if at all possible.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Not true Geoff, once fusion is sorted. Limitless clean energy.
No doubt they will find a way to make us pay through the nose for it though.
